[nfbcs] Terminal emulation and Jaws

[Deborah Armstrong]

I wonder if it is something as simple as a window class changing? Do you know what the scripts are doing? Perhaps it's as simple as doing a Say All when a particular window class has focus.

You need to eliminate some factors; is this the same version of TN3270? Or did you have to upgrade it to get it working with Windows 7?

Not sure how fast I can do this by mail, but here goes...

Am I safe to assume that the JAWS cursor reported text from the terminal window before but no longer does?

Try maximizing the terminal screen. If that doesn't work, find a way, perhaps via visual assistance, to verify that no window is covering up all or part of the terminal window. So-called "stay on top" windows, like alert messages and popup dialogs, can do that even over a maximized screen sometimes.

Let me know what comes of those ideas and I'll see where to go from there.

I have a terminal emulator, TN3270,  I've been using for probably 20 years on various machines.  Today, I installed it on my husband's new Dell, running Windows 7 and Jaws 15.  I installed the scripts and compiled them, and I set up the session display the same as I always do.  However, Jaws is not reading the terminal screen at all.  I called Jaws tech support, but their only idea was to upgrade Jaws to 17.  I can do this, but I'm sure it won't fix my problem.

If anyone has any more productive ideas, I'd be glad for them.
